I spent $550 in a cruise ship casino — and a few months later, Royal Caribbean gave me a 5-night cruise with a $0 cruise fare. But was it actually free? In this video, I’m taking the offer aboard Mariner of the Seas from Galveston and tracking what it really costs: what I spent to get the offer, what it cost to take the cruise, and what I spent trying to keep the casino offers coming. From taxes and fees to Wi-Fi, gratuities, port days in Costa Maya and Cozumel, and another trip to the casino, I’m adding up every dollar to find out whether this “free cruise” actually saved me money.
